We are bringing back Folktales and will be spending time exploring other versions as well as retelling the stories using a variety of strategies. Students will have the opportunity to practice, work together and build confidence to record their retellings.
Encourage your child to think about the story, to be able to report the 4 main elements (characters, setting, problem and solution) as well as the events that happen. Continue to discuss character traits and reasons why they feel that way.
There was a 5 Finger Retell video posted under "Educational Videos." We are using this as one of the strategies to retell a story.
